| About Me: |
| I'm a 17 year old senior in high school. I get along with pretty much everyone, and I don't hate on other skaters if they're better or worse then me. I don't like when skaters put each other down, because that never helps progression. I work at a local hardware store 3 days a week, and the rest of my time goes to school and skating. After high school, I'll be going to college, but will always make time to skate. And if I can make a career out of it, even better. I skate because I love skating, not because it's the cool thing to do or to make a living off of it. If I can, that's cool, if not I still love it and will skate every chance I get. Just about every day I'm skating and I'm always learning new tricks. The people you meet along the way are great. Skateboarding is an amazing thing. No matter what dressing style you have or what you do outside of skating, skaters are brought together by the sport. This piece of wood with trucks and four wheels brings together people that normally would never even think of talking to each other, people all around the world, and that's a really amazing thing.

| Goals: |
| Get a sponsor! |
| Favorite Place: |
| A few... there's this one bank by me that has a grass gap and manny pads, it's pretty fun. The basketball courts around the corner are really smooth and there's a few flat bars to mess around on over there. Uter is a great spot with benches and pole jams and boxes, great to learn new tricks. |
| Favorite Company: |
| Not sure. |
| Strengths: |
| I learn tricks pretty quickly. I'm always meeting new people through skating, and I get along with pretty much everyone. |
| Weaknesses: |
| Not so consistent when it comes to flip tricks over gaps. |
| What does your schedule look like: |
| Laid back. |
| How did you get started: |
| Mom and Dad bought me a board for Christmas when I was like 10. I learned to ollie and shuv it then stopped. Bought a new set up when I was around 15, and haven't stopped since. |
| In the next 5 years where would you like to see yourself?
Anything else you want to add: |
| Hopefully sponsored, but if not I'll probably be working as a software engineer or something. |
